38 weeks

How far along? 38 weeks 

Current weight/ Total Weight gain: 154 lbs

Maternity clothes? Yep.

Stretch marks: A few.

Sleep: Fair. Really hurts to roll over in bed.

Best moment this week: 38wk dr appt. Baby heart sounds good. I am dilated to a 2 and measuring at 36cm. My cervix is "mush" or really soft but is still nice and long. Dr. Firth says 3 out of the 4 things have happened so time will tell. She really could come any time. He says he would like to see me go two more weeks.

Miss Anything? Just wanting my body back!

Movement: She has been pretty active this last week with me bouncing on my exercise ball. 

Food cravings or things you can eat: Sour worms, White chocolate covered pretzels, M&Ms
Anything making you queasy or sick: Original Dove deodorant still doesn't smell good.  

Symptoms: Ligament pain when I roll over in bed.  If I sit or lay for too long and try to get up, everything is so tight I have a hard time moving for a minute. Sore tailbone & sore back seem to be helped by sitting on my exercise ball. I have had some Braxton Hicks but they are becoming less noticeable- my Dr. says thats probably due to using my ball and I am stronger.

Have you started to show yet: Yep! I actually am not feeling that big either even though I look big.

Belly Button In/Out? Out. Poor belly button.

Bloated: No.

Labor: I am starting to have stronger, cramping going on. Hoping those little contraction are helping things move along.

Wedding Ring on/off: On. 

Gender? GIRL!!!

Name? Jade Emeline

Looking forward to: 39 week appointment. Just trying to keep busy until then. I did finish Jade's Owl quilt finally!!!! I did it all by myself too.

 Its not perfect but it sure is made with love!!!
